High-yield reactive extraction of giant fullerenes from soot
1997
By the common Soxhlet extraction with 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene a mere 8
mass % of virgin fullerene soot can be dissolved. The extracted soot was
subjected to a reactive extraction with
5-hexadecanamido-1,3-dihydro-2-benzothiophene 2,2-dioxide(4), an
ortho-quinodimethane precursor. Through an irreversible
Diels–Alder cycloaddition an additional 12 mass % was solubilized.
Mass spectrometry, vapour pressure osmometry and elemental analysis
indicate that the soluble material consists of multiple adducts of
fullerenes C
